Formaldehyde is a VOC (volatile organic compound) in the aldehyde family that is widely used in industry but is recognized as a carcinogen. It can cause severe irritation of the respiratory tract, eyes, and skin.

Regular monitoring of occupational exposure to formaldehyde is a regulatory requirement and essential for protecting workers’ health and preventing occupational diseases.

What is included in the Scan4Work - Formaldehyde testing kit?

  • A Scan4Air ALDEHYDE sampler
  • Instructions for use
  • A sample collection form to be completed and returned with your sample
  • Laboratory analysis of the sample
  • Analysis report sent by email to the address provided on the sample collection form

Shipping costs (both delivery and returns within mainland France) are included.

What are the main industrial uses of formaldehyde?

Formaldehyde is commonly found in consumer products and is one of the most widely used chemicals in industry, particularly as:

  • Manufacture of urea-formaldehyde, phenol-formaldehyde, and melamine-formaldehyde resins
  • Found in particleboard, adhesives, paints, varnishes, and treated textiles
  • Used in analytical and clinical laboratories (for fixing and preserving samples)
  • A combustion product in certain industrial processes (plastics manufacturing, metallurgy, heat treatment)

What are the occupational exposure limits (OELs) that employers must comply with?

According to current regulations in France and OSHA, the 8-hour OEL for formaldehyde is 0.37 mg/m³, and the short-term OEL (15 minutes) is 0,74 mg/m³.

The formaldehyde OELs are mandatory, meaning that workers' exposure must not exceed the OEL.

How is your air sample collected and analyzed?

  • Sampling: This is performed using a Scan4Air ALDEHYDE sampler containing DNPH, specifically designed for occupational exposure sampling.
    • For workplace air measurements, it is placed in the work environment for a period of 8 hours
    • For occupational exposure measurement, it is attached with the provided clip to the operator’s collar for 8 hours.
  • Analysis: After extracting the DNPH derivates with a solvent, the extract is analyzed by liquid chromatography (LC) coupled with spectrophotometry (UV-Visible) for reliable and accurate detection.
  • Turnaround time: Your analysis results are available within 15 business days.
  • Report: Your analysis results are sent via email in the form of a detailed report in French.

Homogeneous Exposure Group (HEG)

The regulatory assessment of occupational exposure requires the simultaneous measurement of exposure for three workers (Homogeneous Exposure Group) and the measurement of ambient air at the workplace. The GHE version of this kit includes all the equipment needed to perform these four measurements.

This kit allows you to easily, quickly, and reliably measure workplace air quality or occupational exposure to ensure compliance with regulations and workplace safety.
